"Double" encoding of HTML entities?

I didn't want to file a bug because we're still using quite an older release of Goobi.Production at the moment. So, is this a known problem? Does it still occur in 1.8.5?

Yes, it's a known problem.
Yes, this behavior still occurs in the merged code base (future 1.10.0).
Shouldn't then a bug be filed related to this? I couldn't yet find one ...
Can you help with this problem?
